PODCAST | Cristiana Palmieri interviews Nashen Moodley, festival director of the Sydney Film Festival.

Festival director Nashen Moodley inspires us pointing out that this year’s program “holds a mirror to titanic shifts culturally and politically, with films that will challenge and excite us. Shining a light on subjects that are often little explored or seen, these films are an invitation for us to collectively reflect on who we are, and what may lay ahead.”

Nashen talks about this year’s program that “celebrates a resurgent year of Australian cinema, with an exceptional selection of contemporary Australian stories including 23 World Premieres, with great Australian storytellers join globally renowned filmmakers to share crucial perspectives on our world.” The festival also strongly supports “talented women filmmakers, in an industry still struggling with equality. With the Europe! Voices of Women in Film strand, and retrospective programs celebrating pioneering women including our tribute to the late Agnès Varda, the Festival this year has signed the 5050×2020 pledge, committing to working towards gender parity and inclusion in film festivals.”
